Bio Format

Name: Innes Heinrich
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Race: Human

Physical Appearance:
Perky brown eyes glint an air of cheekiness, “bloodstained” whitish-pink hair flowing down a petite and pale form. A grimy scarf wraps snugly around an ever-present smile, while also hiding the horrific burn scars that stretch down her back from the nape. Despite being vertically challenged at 5'4, she (metaphorically) stands tall and confident (when she isn’t tripping over her own two feet!)

Clothing/Armor:
A tanned sleeveless tunic falls to her thighs, splitting over a pair of belted black trousers. A navy-blue scarf is thrown around her neck, hiding underneath a circular silver pendant depicting a cross. On her arms she wears a pair of black fingerless gloves that are folded halfway down her upper arm, and a pair of relatively comfortable leather hunting boots with rubber soles on her feet.

Weapon(s): An arm length trident-like sceptre made of a blue shaft adorned with two thick silver prongs curving inward around a garnet marble. As with priest customs, the weapon has no points or edges to speak of – though does make for an excellent bludgeoning stick.

Magic: White Mage (Healing/Buffing/Holy spells) and barrier spells.

Short History:
Innes’s first memories were that of recovery, having been saved from certain death by a sect of isolated monks. Permitted to live with the monks for a time, she discovered her latent magical talents in her early years through rigorous study and practice with the kind priests. The sanctuary of the stone walls quickly became confining, however, and many a time could she be found meditating upon that one balcony overlooking the vastness of the valley below, or scouring scriptures of the outside world.

One day, a group of adventurers arrived at the Monastery, looking for work. Day and night, she tailed them everywhere, hounding them for tales of the outside world. Begrudgingly, at the monks persuasion, they eventually agreed to take her on their travels on the condition she allow them even one nights rest.

After several adventures, the group parted ways on good terms with a fine ale in hand. Though times had been good, Innes’s wanderlust was left unfettered * there were more adventures to be had, and so much more to learn. Though she was frugal with her coin, her purse eventually “exhausted” several weeks ago as she ventured to Darlyt.

Other: Has a bad habit of mixing up names.

Name: Algirdas (all-gear-das)
Age: 33
Gender: Male
Race: Human

Physical Appearance: Six feet tall, strong and hardy. Has short blonde hair and blue eyes, and a full beard with enough hair to cover the skin but not being long or shaggy. Facially, looks like the Balts, with stress, violence, and age starting to take their toll. He has some scars along the face and arms from battle.

Clothing/Armor: Wears a simple brown-coloured, long-sleeved, loose-fitting robe reaching his ankles, that opens apart down the front, worn over a doublet and trousers. Also wears a long brown pointed hat that slightly bends backwards towards the tip, a common kind of hat worn in his Baltic homeland.

Currently, he is armed, wearing lamellar armour over his robe; the lamellar armour hangs down to his thighs, split down the middle at the groin front and back. The armour has short sleeves that cover the shoulders and end before the elbows. Over his hat, he wears a nasal helm, which has pierced holes along the bottom rim to allow a short mantle of mail to hang from.

Over his trousers, he wears chausses, mail leggings tied behind the leg. The bottom of his robe visible hangs under his lamellar armour and over his legs. The clothes he wears underneath his armour helps resist blunt force trauma. Overall, he has rather old-fashioned equipment, at least compared to knights in plate armour.

Weapon(s): At his belt is a sheathed baselard at his left, and at his right, a sheathed arming sword. Beside the sheathed dagger is a wide ring hanging by the end of a short loop of leather hanging from the belt, with a bearded axe's shaft dropped down the ring so that it hangs by its head. A convenient way to carry an axe.

Slung over the shoulders is a kite shield. His main weapon is a longaxe with a crescent-shaped blade terminating into points top and bottom, which he usually carries around when allowed.

Magic: He does not know any magic, but as a pagan of the old ways, his god, Dievas, is a deity who judges his worshippers based on their acts of kindness, but punishes evildoers by turning them into animals after they die.

He also believes in Perkunas, a god of thunder and a Baltic environment, and so Algirdas is resistant to electricity-based magic and lightning attacks, however, he himself cannot weaponize such powers. He is empowered while in a rainy, oaken, mountainous, or thunderous environment, for these are the aspects of his peoples' gods.

Short History: A pagan from a Baltic land, he comes from the bajorai, a term used to refer to the nobility. As the youngest sibling of the family, and thus having little to no inheritance, he was forced to seek his fortune abroad as a well-equipped adventurer ever since a young man, serving as a bodyguard or mercenary for various voivodes (warlords), fighting minor battles for them, knowing loss and victory, and being a hunter and woodsman when things did not go so well. A few times, he even watched over the construction of siege engines to use against walls and towers, making his experience broad and versatile.

He gained success and eventually purchased an old holk, a kind of large flat-bottomed clinker-built boat, which he used for trade, seafaring, piracy, and raiding with his companions of adventurers like himself. Eventually, his crew disbanded once the holk was too old and beyond repair, scuppered ceremonially, and at that, the adventurers went their separate ways. Algirdas now seeks further adventures in Daralt. He plans to eventually become a vassal when age or wounds prevents adventuring.

Other: Experienced in seafaring, raiding, piracy, hunting, skirmishing, battles, and small-scale siegecraft, Algirdas is a valuable leader and warrior for both land and sea despite no longer having a company or boat. He is accustomed to Atlantic waters, knowing how to maneuver ships for evading ice bergs, drifting sea ice, and for boarding other ships. He was never famous.

If the Sorusian Empire have ships with rams, Algirdas has no experience of ramming, nor the use of cannons (due to coming from an old-fashioned pagan culture), and he does not know if this island or continent of Maphis knows much about him, having done all of his adventure in Baltic regions and Atlantic waters faraway. Presumably, he is currently at the Job Board.

Name: Lady Ivis Sinclaire.
Age: 82. (Young adult)
Gender: Female.

Race: Kitsune. (A race of long-lived fox people. The Kitsune culture is somewhat old fashioned and traditional, usually ripe with plots to further personal status, tricks to trap their enemies and subtle machinations behind the scenes to turn things in their favour. In short, Kitsune are a race of backstabbing nobles. They possess the ears and tail of a fox, the fur always the same colour as their hair, and their long-livedness has... Conditions. They are born with only a single tail, but through the honing of their natural abilities some Kitsune may grow more tails, resulting in a longer lifespan. Where a single tailed Kitsune has a roughly human lifespan those with additional tails live far longer. Any Kitsune with nine tails is both powerful and old, and some legends even suggest the possibility of a legendary ten tailed Kitsune.

While they have a natural affinity with illusions not all Kitsune have magical abilities. Those that do have a unique form of magic known as foxfire at their disposal, magical flames that can be manipulated to form illusions as well as burn their foes. Furthermore, they are skilled negotiators and diplomats, and have very keen hearing.)

Physical Appearance: Despite her age Ivis has the looks of a fair-skinned young beauty, a near-permanent smirk attached to her lips. Luscious blue-black hair falls down to her shoulders, straight and silky with a pleasant springiness to it. It is very neat, with a slight fringe that crosses to the left of her forehead, a lock curling upwards slightly. Ivis' eyes are golden, shining with mischief.

Retaining her youngful features is all because of the three blue-black fox tails that sprout from the base of her spine, tapering down to white tips. They are very well-groomed, not a single strand of fur out of place on any of the three, and are softer than anyone can imagine. They are quite long, enough so that she could curl them around to I am Inferi.

her front and wrap her arms around them to hug them close. Since they are so soft and silky this tends to be a common occurrence, especially given they can keep her warm on a chilly evening. Adding on to this, Ivis' tails have a rather bizarre attraction to them, so when a person's eyes glance over them the sheer fluffiness holds their attention firmly. The urge to touch fluffy tail is overpowering, some have said.

Her ears are atop her head, blue-black outer fur while the interior is a soft white. Ivis stands at a modest 5'5" tall,, and has a slender but slightly toned body. Her bust is a C-cup, and her rear is pretty fine. She is naturally quick but, with her slight frame, not especially strong or durable.

Clothing/Armor: Unlike the fashion choices of most of her race Ivis opts towards modest traveling garb, that of a long red tunic, tan breeches and a pair of black boots. She keeps a belt tied around her waist that has a lot of pouches and satchels attached, as well as twin bandoliers crossing over her chest, covered in a good number of vials that appear to be full of different kinds of liquid or... Even gas. Over this she wears a dark coat, usually left open, with many pockets and pouches. Ivis keeps many pairs of gloves on hand, thick and thin, for use when necessary, as well as a pair of goggles that usually rest just above her forehead.

Weapon(s): While she has a dagger sheathed on her belt it is nothing really special, and she has a few other, smaller knives kept on her person. However, these are more for harvesting than combat, since her main weapon of choice is her concoctions. Ivis is an alchemist, you see, and has plenty of formulas she can use to keep people from getting up again.

Magic: Ivis is an anomaly among her people. While born with the capability to use magic, she did not, and does not, possess the ability to use foxfire. Her studies lead her towards the difficult school of artificing, and well... She's good. While she requires the right I am Inferi.

ingredients, reagents and materials Ivis is a highly capable artificer, and an incredibly skilled alchemist, able to easily identify most enchantments from simple examination.

Short History: Being born into the infamous Sinclaire family, notorious for their tenacity and determination to rise in the ranks of nobility, Ivis' childhood was a regime of strict learning. While taught all the things necessary to be a person of upper class, and then some, she never truly took to the high life expected of her. Despite her keen mind and being a quick learner, as shown by her swift slog through most of her studies, Ivis' attitude was simply not right for her family. They could not use her as a piece in their political games, and thus she was kicked from her home and stricken from nobility. So, while not a 'Lady' anymore, she still rather likes the title and continues using it.

With little choice but to take to the road Ivis put her natural talents to use, charming travelers to hitch rides on carts, sell products at higher prices and appraise the value of things small-towners didn't even know the names of. In short, she took to it pretty damn well, and traveling served to find her many ingredients and reagents to use in both alchemy and artificing. While having recently arrived in Daralt to start making her true fortune it is not her first visit to the city, albeit her last trip had not lasted for long.

Other: She has a really large backpack full of supplies and a room at the inn that she has set up for... Well, set up to work her craft. Good thing she had the money to pay until further notice. I am Inferi.

Name: Kyve Estobar

Age: Late twenties, (estimate of 28.)

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Physical Appearance: Kyve is a black man standing at roughly six foot, two inches. His hair is black and curly, long enough to stretch past his ears and to stand a few inches about his head, if not for the fact that Kyve religiously gels his hair back to keep it in check. Kyve has brown eyes, and a chevron moustache sits beneath a wide nose, but otherwise is completely clean shaven.

Kyve is very well built, a testimony to the lifestyle he has lead, being very well muscled throughout his body. His skin sports no blemishes or scratches save for a slight nick of a scar above his left eyebrow, which is near enough unnoticeable anyway. He is wide-shouldered and long-legged, and his hands are heavily calloused, an indicator to his many years out at sea.

On his back, Kyve has large, swirling patterns protruding from his skin, the result of deliberate, tribalistic cuts being made in the skin and ash being placed within the wound, so that the scar tissue would grow over the ash and make the risen image.


Clothing/Armor: Kyve has a loose array of items one may consider clothing. He wears a dark-blue, button-up shirt, the top five or six buttons of which he generally leaves undone to reveal the hairy, masculine physique underneath. Over this he wears a sleeveless leather jacket, matched by his hard-leather chaps which tuck into brown travelling boots. At his waist he wears a belt, the buckle of which depicts a skull, which holds the sheaths for a cutlass on his left and a main-gauche (parrying dagger,) on his right. Tied around his neck is a red bandana. Hags be hagglin', gods be god damn crazy, it's all happening ogre at Into The Fire
